Local Firemen Get Test Under Real Conditions celebrate the AHSs first By Edith Holmes The past weekend was a very busy one for members of the Volunteer Fire departments from several towns as they took part in three days training in Fredonia. The school was sponsored and set up by Herb Hoey, Arizona State Fire Marshal, in charge of training. Instructors for the three sessions were Phoenix Fire Department Battalion Chief's Mannie Martinez and Steve Allen. The schooling started on Friday evening with movies and instruction on structural fires. About five hours were spent on this. On Saturday, the firemen were instructed, by actual participation, in all they had seen in films the night before. This included SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) Obstacle Course, Hose Laying and Pumping. The Obstacle Course dealt with firemen being unable to see because of smoke, their warning bell had sounded warning them they were about out of air. They had to leave a burning building without the use of their eves. (Hoods had been placed over their heads). They were in full gear and got out by crawling along, feeling the fire hose. They had to remember the shape of hose connections in order to know they were going out and not back to the fire. According to the men, this was real hairy and just a little frightening. Full geat included boots, coats, pants, gloves, helmets, face masks and the breathing apparatus. Each fire department brought what they had and the Fredonia firemen borrowed what they needed. The instructors had brought breathing apparatus consisting of 10 harnesses and 12 tanks. The men worked in pairs, the buddy system. Some made it through and some did not. Sunday class started at about 7:30 a.m. The course was the actual burning of a house. The house was donated by Alta Brooksby, it was closely situated between a storage shed on one side and a mobile home on the other. The house was on North Main and West Hortt Street. Several groups of firemen were taken into the burning building wearing full fire gear. This gave them experience in entering and leaving a burning building, and how to combat a fire with the least amount of damage. This phase of the training was watched by many spectators. The building was one of the tended in Fredonia constructed with lumber and stuccoed inside and out. It burned slowly at times so stoves are fine to keep the home warm but improperly installed and used they can destroy lives and property. Be certain there is adequate space between the stove, pipe and combustible material. Grass and weeds are once again very dry. Clear them away from wood fences and outbuildings and keep matches away from small children. Lets try and go the rest of the year without any more fires. older homes things were livened up with several water fights between crews of firemen. The house finally caved in some, then wall that were left standing were pulled down and the fire put out. The shed and mobile home were unharmed, and the large elm trees were only slightly scorched, even the weeds around the house were unburned. The area will be cleaned up soon. All the firemen who finished the course will be awarded certificates by the State Fire Marshals office. There were about forty firemen taking part in the training. They were from Fredonia, Kanab, Page, Colorado City and two men from Mesa, Arizona. The men put in about twenty hours of hard work, all for the good of the towns they represented. A. A.
